Someone needs to build an IRC-to-Slack bridge, so that we can use @SlackHQ as an IRC client.

@h0ke @kevinmarks Is that only for the indiewebcamp IRC channel? It'd be super useful for general usage.

@shazow @h0ke ask @aaronpk for details - @slackHQ has an irc bridge built in, but Aaron did some smart things around signup and Loqi

@kevinmarks @shazow @h0ke @slackHQ It basically is the Slack web hooks posting to an IRC bot.

@aaronpk @kevinmarks @h0ke @slackhq Ah, that's not what I had in mind. I want to be able to use Slack as an IRC client via a bouncer.

@shazow @kevinmarks @h0ke @slackhq Yeah you could do that with the Slack web hooks posting to an IRC bot that's signed in to your bouncer.

@aaronpk @kevinmarks @h0ke @slackhq I get that it's technically possible. Need some instrumentation to make it bidirectional (with images).

@aaronpk Working on a bouncer, might make it a native feature so you won't need a bot. :)
